oh man, sad to see them close if that's the case, the war I enjoy most is probably the 2002 war meridell vs darigan plot war.
and maybe they could introduce neocash item for people to unfreeze their accounts for a expensive price. (just a thought of making money for them)
Never gonna happen

I think there's a better chance of them allowing people to pay to unconvert their pets.

Applied for relief from the default judgement on Monday.

Surprised it took this long... when premium first came out I had issues getting out of the subscription, therefor it's not shocking that they had other issues in that department
Posted 14 January 2016 - 01:38 PM
What does this mean? There's going to be a trial after all, or they're just trying to pay less/not pay?

I didn't know either, so I did a quick search on google and this is what I found:
Default judgment is a binding judgment in favor of either party based on some failure to take action by the other party. Most often, it is a judgment in favor of a plaintiff when the defendant has not responded to a summons or has failed to appear before a court of law. The failure to take action is the default. The default judgment is the relief requested in the party's original petition.
Default can be compared to a forfeit victory in sports. In a civil trial involving damages, a default judgment will enter the amount of damages pleaded in the original complaint. If proof of damages is required, the court may schedule another hearing on that issue. A party can have a default judgment vacated, or set aside, by filing a motion, after the judgment is entered, by showing of a proper excuse.
Relief from default judgment
A defendant who has had a default judgment entered against him may move for an order vacating the judgment. Such a defendant must show "good cause" for his not having responded to the complaint. However, "good cause" is rather easy to meet, compared to other instances where "good cause" might be required. For example, mere "excusable neglect" is, at least at the federal level, a sufficient reason to vacate default judgments.There are often time limits and other requirements.

Essentially the default means they didn't bother to turn up to defend themselves so the judgement would automatically go against them. They've now applied to have that set aside and it was granted so it'll be delayed a bit further. 25th January is when to expect the next update on it.

I feel like "excusable neglect" is TNT's new catchphrase

I cancelled premium in 2012, and randomly got charged for the full year of 2015! Such a hassle but thankfully my creditor dealt with it.

^ New attorneys for Neopets, looks like they're finally starting to take it seriously.

Its a shame that Neopets got ruined.... I've experienced the billing issues and still no one has helped me.

Neopets has always had issues. It's just new that someone is actually suing them over it. I don't expect Neopets to stop just because they get taken to court, though.

Neo is tanking like Kobe Bryant and the LA lakers
it will be fun to watch

Looks like nothing came of it. On April 18th, the judge told both parties to pay their own court fees and gtfo. No decision for/against anyone or any action.

how anticlimactic.

How lame 
Then again, I never really expected anything to come out of it x)
Posted 26 April 2016 - 09:47 PM
So nothing is happening? The party who sued isn't going to try and push this further? I have very little knowledge of the court system -- do these non-decisions happen often?
Posted 27 April 2016 - 05:25 AM
It looks like they lawyered up on February 24 when they realized they stood to lose a lot of money, and then those lawyers were like "this was done wrong!" on March 11, and then they pushed hard for a dismissal on March 28 and actually got the case dismissed on April 18.
There's a reason good lawyers cost a lot.

I think "pay your own fees and GTFO" may be my new motto.
